You're not far off the mark. Check my signature for a link to the research. Also, earlier this week, I did a thematic map which took the
Yellowstone Caldera and buffered a 600 mile radius around it (the danger zone) and using the Census numbers from 200 did a statistical analysis of the
number of the population impacted by such an eruption. Somthing like 16 and a half million people and thats not couting the portion of Canada which I
don't have population stats for yet. Still trying to include those.

Yes, and I think that the 9-11 and the "Mars mission" are diversions made to divert the opinion or the masses from the truth.

Oh and btw, just got som Canada numbers that are from 1996 which puts the total population within the 600 mile buffer at a shade over 26 million
people. Now, that doesn't mean they'd all be goners just the zone that is predicted to be affected directly.

from what i thought, the "buffer zone" was where the debris and everything would be blown accross the nation, correct? have you taken into account
the jet stream and otehr wind currents and the probably blowing of it all in a more eastern to southern from them? just out of curiosity, because then
the "buffer zone" would be more elliptical than circular

Yes, and that was in response to? I simply said that I believe that 911 and Mars were staged in order to draw the minds of the masses away from the
fact that Yellowstone seems to go off any day now....

That was in response to the post after yours. I had no argument with your post.

I wonder if i will be able to see it happen, Im on the 24th floor looking west in chicago. Im sure the earths curve will stop me from seeing it ,
unless it goes high enough.

The assumption that such a large Caldera will erupt suddenly and unlease massive energy like a Krakatoa or the lesser Mt. St Helens is not necessarily
so.

There may be an event that is massive, but if the entire thing erupts, it might unfold over decades or hundreds of years of continuous releases. I
think the geological record would reveal this idea. No doubt continental volcanoes do behave differently from say those on the Big Island of Hawaii,
Kilauea and Mauna Loa. The latter as Kilauea have been erupting for two decades or so. The continental variety seem to unleash massive energies. The
only problem is that there is such a large area involved here, that would release much energy but do the physics. It has to be more widespread but
continuous over a long time.

I do not agree with the self cynical deprications of "hell," and the old garbage dump of gehenna as appropriate to religious belief other than for
landlords collecting their rent from feudalistic slaves, and in their divine right of kings threatening the poor peasants with "hell," if they
don't "pay."

I do believe it will be a gigantic explosion. Water causes Volcanoes to explode... probably the case in Mt. St. helens, I don't know, but the water
is evaporated causing increased pressure inside the volcano, and when released, It just let's all hell loose. And since were dealing with a geyser
here... it's got plenty of water.

From the site:

Immediately before the eruption, there would be large earthquakes in the Yellowstone region. The ground would swell further with most of
Yellowstone being uplifted. One earthquake would finally break the layer of rock that holds the magma in - and all the pressure the Earth can build up
in 640,000 years would be unleashed in a cataclysmic event.
Magma would be flung 50 kilometres into the atmosphere. Within a thousand kilometres virtually all life would be killed by falling ash, lava flows and
the sheer explosive force of the eruption. Volcanic ash would coat places as far away as Iowa and the Gulf of Mexico. One thousand cubic kilometres of
lava would pour out of the volcano, enough to coat the whole of the USA with a layer 5 inches thick. The explosion would have a force 2,500 times that
of Mount St. Helens. It would be the loudest noise heard by man for 75,000 years, the time of the last super volcano eruption. Within minutes of the
eruption tens of thousands would be dead.

The long-term effects would be even more devastating. The thousands of cubic kilometres of ash that would shoot into the atmosphere could block out
light from the sun, making global temperatures plummet. This is called a nuclear winter. As during the Sumatra eruption a large percentage of the
world's plant life would be killed by the ash and drop in temperature. Also, virtually the entire of the grain harvest of the Great Plains would
disappear in hours, as it would be coated in ash. Similar effects around the world would cause massive food shortages. If the temperatures plummet by
the 21 degrees they did after the Sumatra eruption the Yellowstone super volcano eruption could truly be an extinction level event.

Wouldn't the question rather be: Would you see it coming? Soon eneough?
